The cloaked man laughs. "Indeed, I can see your reasoning. Nonetheless, though, we will spread your story, Kazuya, and you, too, Xile. We will never forget." The man and the rest of the burly men walk back inside.

Grinning widely, Athez steps past Jack and headed out into the hallway. Just then, a pair of prisoners turned the corner and charged him, metal batons raised above their heads. Grabbing the weapons as they came down, Athez twisted them and threw both men to the ground.

As both men stared up at him in astonishment, Athez simply snapped his fingers, an electric spark forming as he did so. Both men convulsed for a second before falling still once again. Walking away from the bodies, Athez stops by a closed door for a second before stabbing through the door with one of the batons. A clattering noise is heard as the door swings open, revealing another man having been waiting in ambush behind the door and the shotgun that he had been wielding.

Grinning at Jack, Athez replies, "Why, we find out why he deserved such special treatment." Stepping through the smoking hole, Athez grabs the man by the front of his jumpsuit and lifts him into the air.

The prisoner started quivering as he glanced between the 16 year-old holding him up with one hand and the skeleton in a suit. He gulped loudly and replied in a shaky voice, "Y-you m-must be h-here for th-those two. Th-the warden h-had them moved to m-maximum s-security just before th-this riot started."

The smoke grenade landed on the edge. A thick layer of smoke quickly formed."That was two inches away from me being labeled as a terrorist..." Blake sighed as he said this. Will was calling... again. Blake hit the ignore button once again.

Mimi stepped into the room and slapped Athez aside staring intensely into the man's eyes.

"It's... In the north quarter... Ju-Just leave me alone!" The man cried out as Mimi reached forward and snapped his neck painlessly. She turned to Athez and gave him an irritated gesture. Mimi was fine with being viewed as a monster. Athez, on the other hand, probably wouldn't like that idea so much.

Joy gasped, "Mimi! What's wrong with you?!" She said in exasperation, knowing it wouldn't change anything.

Glancing down at the body, Athez simply said, "She did what was needed," and strode back towards the door. Just before he got to the threshold, he shook his head and muttered to himself almost too quietly to be heard, "C'mon, focus."

Slowing down slightly to walk alongside Joy, Athez looked over and looked apprehensive for a second. "I'm sorry if I'm acting a bit more strange than normal. Something about this place, it looks a lot like one of the Shinra training facilities. Some of their 'training' is coming forward a bit strongly."

Nicole blushes and giggles a tad awkwardly. "B-Blaaaaaake..." She looks away to hide her smile. Dang, he's really falling for me... Gotta take it slow and easy. "That was cheesy... but sweet of you," Nicole adds.
